2. 3 - Amino-2 -methy lbenzonitrile; To a mixture of 2-methyl-3-nitrobenzonitrile (5.50 g, 33.9 mmol) and ammonium chloride (25.4 g, 475 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (100 mL) and methanol (100 mL) at 0 °C was added zinc dust (31.1 g, 475 mmol) in portions. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 hr. The insoluble material was removed by suction filtration through CELITE, and the filtrate was concentrated under vacuum. The residue was diluted with water (50 mL) and extracted with CH2CI2 (4 x 100 mL). The combined extract was dried over anhydrous MgSO4. Removal of solvent under vacuum provided the desired product (4.19 g, 31.7 mmol, 93% yield) as a white solid.
